INSTALLATION
• After removing the packing materials, check the integrity of the heater; if you are unsure, do not
use it and ask for qualified professional help. The packing materials (plastic bags, polystyrene
foam, nails, etc.) must be kept out the reach of children because they are potential sources of
danger.
• Before connecting the appliance, check that the voltage shown on the data plate matches that of
your electricity (230V~50Hz). In the event of incompatibility between the electric outlet and the
plug of the heater, have the outlet replaced with another more suitable type by professionally
qualified personnel, who will make sure that the section of the wires of the outlet is appropriate for
the absorbed power of the heater (10A). Check that the mains are not connected equipment; high
absorption to prevent overloading and fire risks. In general, the use of adapters or extension cords
is not recommended; if their use is indispensable, they must conform to existing safety standards
and their current capacity (amperes) must not be less that the maximum of the heater.Attention:
before use the appliance remove the detachable coupon to stick the handle.
• Before each use, verify that the heater is in good condition and that the electrical cord is not
damaged: in the case of doubt, ask for professionally qualified help.
• Make sure that the cable is correctly positioned and that it is not in contact with hot parts or sharp
edges, nor wrapped around the device or twisted.
• The power socket must be easy to reach so the plug can be removed quickly in case of emergency.
• Position the fan heater far from other sources of heat, inflammable materials (curtains, carpets,
etc.), inflammable gases or explosive materials (spray cans) and from materials that can deform on
exposure to heat. Make sure that there is 100 cm of free space in front of the fan heater and 30 cm
on the sides. Do not use the heater in the immediate vicinity of a bathtub, shower or swimming
pool (to avoid drops of water falling on the heater or the heater falling in the water), or in places
where it could be subject to shocks.
• Make sure that the fan heater is working correctly: if not, turn the heater off and have it checked by
professionally qualified personnel.
• Make sure that the air-intake grid is not obstructed by objects, fabrics or anything else to avoid the
heater overheating or breaking.
• Do not use the appliance with a timer or a programmer or with a system that can switch on the
appliance automatically, to avoid risk of fire, since a fire risk exists if the heater is covered or
positioned incorrectly. Check that no other high absorption appliances are connected to the same
power source.
• In the case of a breakdown or fault, switch off the appliance and have it checked by a
professionally qualified technician; repairs made by unqualified persons can be dangerous and
render void the warranty.
• The appliance can be used standing on a level horizontal surface or fastened vertically to a wall.
Instructions for installation are given below.
Horizontal installation
The surface must be stable, rigid, and not sloping (otherwise the appliance could tip), ample and
free of any debris. Shelves cannot be used.
Vertical installation
Follow the indications given in the illustrations when fitting the appliance to the wall: Pay attention
not to perforate any pipes or conducts inside the wall. The fastening holes must be horizontal with
an inter-axis of 162mm, at a distance of at least 50cm from the ceiling and side walls, and at least
120cm from the floor. The hole for the locking flange must be made 170mm below the previous 2.
It is not in the centre between the previous holes but slightly aside, 97mm with respect to the
vertical of the left hole, and 65mm with respect to the vertical of the right hole.
